Chapter 107: Peace is Made

"How much does the military advisor know about this Yuan Chonghuan?" Jiang Chuan asked after coming back to his senses.

"I've only heard about it. It is said that although Yuan Chonghuan is a civil official, his style of action is even stronger and more decisive than that of a battlefield general. In the past, when he was a local official, he led the army to suppress bandits everywhere many times, and the methods were tough, and all bandits who did not surrender at the beginning would have their heads cut off even if they surrendered later. So much so that wherever Yuan Chonghuan went, the local bandits either fled when they heard the news, or they carried it to the end. So much so that Yuan Chonghuan fell into a nickname 'Yuan Manzi'. β€œ

"Yuan Chonghuan is a tough official and a good person, so he is naturally not very popular with his colleagues in the officialdom. It's just that he has won the trust of the current Ming Emperor, so he can rise all the way, so that in the year of knowing the Mandate of Heaven, he achieved the high position of a second-class member of the imperial court such as the military department Shangshu. It's just that now that the Ming Dynasty is raging in the court, Yuan Chonghuan's focus has always been on suppressing the Kou, how could he suddenly go to Datong to supervise the teacher? Could it be that the situation in the Central Plains has changed greatly? Liu Ji said eloquently, and later he also said to himself in confusion.

After listening to Liu Ji's introduction, Jiang Chuan also had to start thinking about what kind of impact it would have on the Jiang family army if Yuan Chonghuan really came to Datong to supervise the division.

The current Datong border army is not very aware of Jiangchuan's existence, and they can't take care of it. But after this battle with the Tartars this time, Jiang Chuan couldn't keep a low profile even if he wanted to.

According to Yuan Chonghuan's character, once he becomes the boss of the Ming border, what kind of attitude will he take towards Jiang Jiajun?

Jiang Chuan is not very optimistic anyway.

He didn't want to tear his face with Da Ming now. One is naturally closer to Daming from a personal point of view. On the other hand, before the Manchus were defeated, it was really not a wise thing to make enemies on both sides.

Looking at Jiang Chuan's pensive and frowning appearance, Liu Ji naturally knew what he was thinking, so he smiled slightly: "Don't worry about the lord. Judging the situation is for the wise. After this battle, we will surely be mighty. If someone is not wise, then there is no need to think about it, just fight. Once our army wins a great victory, he will inevitably become a wise man. β€œ

Jiang Chuan's eyes lit up, and he laughed and said: "The military advisor wakes up the dreamer with a word, yes, peace is made." If people don't offend me, I don't offend anyone. If anyone sins against me, I will chop off his paws and cut off his head, so that he will not be able to take care of himself. ”

At the end, Jiang Chuan also brought a long note, which made the other three laugh.

After this little episode, the four of them chatted and ate and drank at the same time. Liu Ji said some interesting things about his travels around the world, and Jiang Chuan also picked up some things that he knew and could say.

"It is said that there is a country overseas, although the territory is also vast, but most of the people are poor. Not to mention that you are well fed and warm, even going to the toilet is a big problem. Few households have a latrine, and most people will find a random corner on the side of the street to solve the toilet if they want to go to the toilet, regardless of gender. So much so that the country is full of foul odors, and foreigners who go to the country will quickly flee the desert, and they must cover their noses and pass quickly if they want to cross the streets. The most strange thing is that after the people of the country unraveled their hands, guess what they used to net their shares? β€œ

Jiang Chuan listened as he spoke, and looked at the three of them with a playful smile in his eyes.

"Childe, you are so bad, what do you say to relieve yourself during dinner." The little girl Xiaowen was not happy to listen to it, and protested with a gagged mouth.

"Okay, then I won't talk about it." Jiangchuan is as good as a stream.

"Childe, then what are they going to do to relieve them?" In the end, the little girl couldn't suppress her curiosity.

"Don't say it, don't say it, what about eating, it can't affect the appetite of the military advisor." Jiang Chuan deliberately waved his hand and smiled.

"Good son, let's talk about it quickly." Xiaowen shook Jiang Chuan's arm and pleaded.

Liu Ji also showed a curious look, he can be regarded as well-informed when he travels around the world, but he has never heard of such a country, so he also looks at Jiang Chuan.

Although Bai Jinxiu didn't speak, her ears were also erect, and she obviously wanted to know.

"Well, I'll tell you if you're so sincere. Let me tell you first, if you go to this country, don't take the food they hand you with your left hand. If it's right-handed, you can consider it. Jiang Chuan laughed and sold it.

"Why can you only take things from your right hand, but not from your left hand? Is their left hand poisonous? The little girl asked puzzled.

Liu Ji and Bai Jinxiu obviously have the same question.

"This brings us back to the question I was asked earlier. You should know the answer by now, right? Jiang Chuan smiled and didn't answer directly, but winked at Xiaowen.

"What's the answer? I don't know. Yes? I see, Childe, you're saying they wipe their butts with their left hand! Xiaowen was a little stunned at first, but suddenly reacted, and then screamed.

"The children can be taught!" Egawa laughed.

"Ahhh Childe, you are so bad, how can you say such a pickled thing......" The little girl came back to her senses and screamed.

Jiang Chuan, who looks at it with a delicate look, is even more funny.

Bai Jinxiu also covered her mouth, not knowing whether she wanted to laugh or vomit, and glared at Jiang Chuan with disgust.

Liu Ji looked weird, looked at Jiang Chuan and said, "Lord, does this country really have such strange customs?" ”

Jiang Chuan smiled and said, "Of course, this is not something I made up. There are so many strange things going on in this country. They never use chopsticks when they eat, they eat all with their hands. They don't nod their heads of agreement or approval, as we do, but shake their heads. β€œ

"The women of their country are very pitiful, and it is difficult to marry without a large dowry when they grow up and want to marry. In this country, the influence of their religion is very great. If a religious elder arranges for a woman to marry, no matter what she marries, she will never be able to resist. Even if the woman marries a piece of grass or a pot of flowers, she must obey the will of the elders and have a solemn wedding for it. ”

"Huh? Is there such a thing? These elders are so bad, those women are so pitiful, how can they let people marry a piece of grass and a pot of flowers? God, this is incredible. The little girl Xiaowen couldn't help but cover her mouth and exclaimed, her eyes widened when she listened.

Bai Jinxiu and Liu Ji obviously looked unbelievable, staring at Jiang Chuan.

"I know you don't believe it, but I'm telling the truth. There are so many sensationalistic things in this country that I'm talking about are just the tip of the iceberg. Jiang Chuan shrugged and smiled.

"The world is so big, there are no surprises. Although it is hard to believe what the lord said for a while, I believe that it should be true. The well-informed Liu Ji stroked his beard and said.

"How can there be a country in the world that does not treat women as human beings? Where is this country, and the little woman wants to see if there is such an unbelievable thing? If so, I would have slashed the religious elders with my sword. Bai Jinxiu said angrily.

Obviously, the righteous heart that she has cultivated since childhood to eliminate evil and promote good has been touched again.

"Yes, let's go to that damned country, we're going to get those poor women out." The little girl also shouted with sympathy.

"That country is separated from Daming by oceans, mountains and rivers, I don't know how many thousands of miles away, how do you go? And there are so many things like this in this country, can you two save it? Jiang Chuan looked at the two little women who were full of justice, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile.

"So, then we don't care?" The two little women were stunned for a moment, and then they realized that they were thinking too naΓ―ve, and the little girl pouted and ate.

"There are so many unfortunate people and sinful things in the world that the power of an individual, or the power of an organization, cannot fundamentally change anything. No matter how many wicked people you kill, there will still be latecomers who will continue to be evil, and there will be a steady stream, how many people can you kill? Therefore, if we want to truly shelter more people from being bullied by evil governments and wicked people, the best way is to break this old world and build a new world according to our own will. Only in this way can we fundamentally eradicate the soil that breeds injustices. Got it? ”

Jiang Chuan became serious, spoke in a slow and solemn tone, and looked at the two girls after speaking.

The two girls were obviously a little dazed, as if they didn't understand.

Jiang Chuan sighed in his heart, if he wanted to change the thinking that they had been instilled for so many years, it was not just a matter of words.

"Okay, it's okay if you don't understand, you'll move slowly in the future. It's getting late, and it's time for you to go back and rest. I'll arrange for someone to send you off. ”

Although the two girls were a little reluctant, it seemed that they still wanted to hear Jiang Chuan tell those strange things.

"I'll tell you about it later. But you have to exchange it for braised pork. Jiang Chuan laughed and suddenly winked at Bai Jinxiu.

Bai Jinxiu froze for a moment, her face turned red again, she said hello to Liu Ji, and then hung her head and hurriedly walked out.

Xiaowen made a grimace at Jiang Chuan, said hello to Liu Ji again, and then hurriedly followed.

"Bai Mu, take someone to send the two girls back." Jiang Chuan called Bai Mu and commanded.

Bai Mu took the order and sent the two daughters with ten personal guards.

Jiang Chuan walked to the lookout, looked at the dark and dreary night outside, listened to the still majestic sound of rain, and said to himself: "Tomorrow, it will be a different scenery." ”
